Star Ocean second story or Wild Arms
both have female protagonist that are actually vital to the story entirely. Not in a superficial way either, but a very in-depth total character arc with pretty good character development on both of them.';

Honestly didn't care about Xenosaga that much but I liked how it tried to do something different with its story and it actually had a female scientist as the protagonist. More games should have girl scientists.';

'>>10880423
Final Fantasy 6. It's an ensemble game with many characters but she is your starting character and many of the major plot points revolve around her. I would argue that she, Celes, and Relm are the most powerful characters if you like magic-based parties.';

I don't know how people feel about Shion but I liked her a lot. At least in Xenosaga 1. I was actually surprised at how likeable she was';

'>>10884784
I think she started my love for girls with glasses. I never finished Ep 2 or 3 but I hear she becomes really hateable by the end of the last game sadly and sluttier too.';

'>>10884874
>she becomes really hateable
qrd?';

'>>10884874
Shion is complex. She gets more and more neurotic as the story goes on, which is a deliberate part of the storytelling. By the third game she basically has a mental breakdown.
She recovers and becomes likable again at the very end. That was kind of the whole purpose of her arc. She carries around her anger, resentment and despair until she finally has no choice but to deal with it in a healthy way.';
